We are offering 4 different types of a latex core as replacement for your existing memory foam, air bed, waterbed, and latex foam cores.
Use your existing zippered cover or replace that also from our selection of covers.
We are pleased to offer the only "true" 100% natural talalay latex cores. There are others out there but independent testing proves
them to be only about 70% natural. We are also offering replacement cores in 100% natural Dunlop processed latex, both solid core
and 7 zoned variety.Lastly we have our tried and true "blended" natural/synthetic talalay latex cores. These cores average 60% synthetic-40% natural.
What is the difference between Talalay latex and Dunlop process latex?
Arizona Premium Mattress Co. features the Talalay process: a highly controlled, sophisticated latex manufacturing process that produces the highest quality, most consistent latex available in the world. An alternative technology, known as the Dunlop process, is the most commonly used production method globally. It creates a firmer product that is most often used as a base core component.
The major difference between the two processes is what happens in the mold just prior to the initial latex curing stage. In the Talaly process, only a small amount of latex compound is poured into the mold. Air is extracted to perfectly distribute the foamed liquid inside the mold and to create a consistent round, open cell structure. The mattress core is flash frozen to lock the cell structure in place and to prevent the particles from settling.
In the Dunlop process, the molds are filled to the rim, air is not extracted, and there is no freeze stage. Therefore, the latex cell structure is less “airy”. Gravity takes over settling the particles to create a more dense product than Talalay latex. A Talalay latex core is available in a much wider firmness range so it can provide enchanced comfort choice for consumers around the globe.
